Pros

It's a paycheck, but only if you're desperate.

Cons

1. Bad management has fostered a shark tank mentality. 2. What was once the leading firm for aerospace design/ development now has employees scraping to get charge numbers for every six- minute interval. 3. New employees are left to scramble to understand the work, because no useful design artifacts are kept. 4. Fighter jets with spaghetti code. 5. Management by intimidation. 6. Leads who have risen solely by attrition, with no real skills. 7. If you have an other-than-pearly-white skin color I'd strongly suggest looking elsewhere. 8. The three-inch roaches in the bathroom (Yes, really!) aren't the worst vermin. (But, keep your clothes up off the floor when doing your business! You don't want a hitchhiker. ) 9. Young engineers: Don't count on getting useful experience here. Watch your back!
